Depop to Gettit: a second Australian audience, for nothing
Depop dropped Australian seller fees in July 2026 and Gettit has never charged a seller commission, so this is not a fee argument. It is about reaching a different Australian buyer — and being honest about which Depop stock belongs there.
- This is not a page about escaping a fee. Since 22 July 2026 Depop has charged Australian sellers nothing on AUD sales, and Gettit’s published fee schedule has never had a seller commission in it. Both channels are free to sell on. The only thing you are buying with a second listing is a second audience.
- The two audiences are genuinely different. Depop is a fashion app with a young, feed-led, style-driven buyer. Gettit is a general Australian preloved marketplace across 164 categories whose own positioning is the opposite end of the house: “Baby and kids is where we are deepest, and where nobody else will go.”
- Which makes the advice asymmetric. Your Depop fashion crosses over fine, but the categories Gettit is deep in — prams, car seats, nursery furniture, tools, home and garden — are mostly not ones a Depop seller stocks. The seller who gains most is the household clearer, especially a parent, whose Depop shop is a by-product of emptying a wardrobe rather than a curated fashion brand.
- Depop changed owner eight days after it made Australian selling free. Etsy sold it to eBay for $1.2bn, closing 30 July 2026. Nothing has gone wrong; it is simply a reason a sensible seller might want one channel that sits outside that group.
- What does not travel is your Depop account itself. Followers, likes, the look of your grid, bumps — none of it comes with the listing. On Gettit you start from an empty two-sided rating. That is the real cost of the second channel, and it is not a fee.
- Gettit is early and we will say so plainly. It launched in August 2026, publishes no user or sales numbers and has essentially no third-party coverage. The argument for being there is a bounded downside: it costs a seller nothing.
- Through FLUF Connect today: import your Depop catalogue, publish selected items to Gettit, and have the Gettit listing pulled down when the item sells on Depop. 7 days for £1, then from £9/month. There is no free plan.

Why a Depop seller would add Gettit at all
Because a second listing now costs you nothing but the time to make it, and it puts the item in front of people who are not on Depop.
That framing matters. The usual argument for adding a channel is arbitrage: platform A takes a percentage, platform B takes less, move the stock and keep the difference. That argument does not apply here and we are not going to pretend it does. From 22 July 2026 Depop charges zero selling fees to Australia-based sellers on AUD sales, replacing the old 10% seller fee with a buyer-paid Marketplace fee of up to 5% plus up to A$1 (Depop’s own announcement). Gettit’s fees schedule similarly documents only buyer-side charges — a buyer protection fee on shipped orders and on Secured Pickup, and a local handover with “no fee of any kind, and no commission”. No seller commission appears anywhere on the platform.
So: two channels, both free to sell on, different buyers. The question is not which is cheaper but whether the second audience is worth a second listing — for some of your stock a clear yes, for some a clear no. The rest of this page is about telling those apart.
Depop said something else useful when it made the change: Australian sellers average A$502 in year-one sales. That is a wardrobe-clearing number, not a business number, and it tells you who Depop thinks its Australian seller is. If your own figure is in that region, you are not fighting for scale — you are trying to get a finite pile of things sold at all. Australia Post’s eCommerce Report 2026 says 46% of Australians buy second-hand each year. Demand is not the constraint; being visible to the part of it that never opens a fashion app is.
The ownership change, and why it is worth a sentence
Depop is now owned by eBay. Etsy sold it, and the sale closed on 30 July 2026 for $1.2bn, as recorded in Etsy’s SEC filings (10-Q for the quarter ended 30 June 2026, shareholder letter).
We are not going to dramatise this. Nothing has degraded and the Australian fee change survived the transaction. But note the sequence: Depop made Australian selling free on 22 July and changed owner eight days later. A seller whose entire second-hand income runs through one app that has just been absorbed into a larger group has an ordinary reason to want one channel outside it. That is a diversification argument, not a complaint, and it only costs you something if the second channel charges you. This one does not.
Where the two audiences overlap, and where they do not
Depop sells clothes to people who came to look at clothes. Gettit sells household preloved goods to people clearing or furnishing a house. The overlap is real but it is narrower than the word “marketplace” suggests.
Depop’s buying behaviour is feed-driven and style-led. Discovery happens through browsing, through following sellers, through a shop that reads as a coherent look. Two identical jackets at the same price perform differently depending on how they are styled and who is posting them. That is a genuine skill, and it is one of the reasons good Depop sellers do well.
Gettit is built on a different premise. It describes itself as “Australia’s marketplace for preloved, including the gear everyone else says no to”, and it is explicit about where its depth is: “Baby and kids is where we are deepest, and where nobody else will go.” Its category tree runs to 164 category pages — Baby & Kids, Prams & Car Seats, Nursery & Furniture, Electronics, Fashion, Bags & Accessories, Home & Garden, Sports & Leisure, Vehicles & Parts, E-Bikes & E-Scooters, Beauty & Health, Books, Music & Games, Collectables, Tools & DIY, Craft & Hobbies, Pets and Antiques among them.
Read that list as a Depop seller and the mismatch is obvious. Fashion is on it, and your fashion will list perfectly well. But the categories Gettit is positioning itself to own are the bulky, awkward, high-value-to-a-parent items a fashion-app seller almost never has in stock. A pram is not a Depop product. Nor is a cot, a mitre saw or a garden bench.
So we will state the asymmetry bluntly: your Depop stock is welcome on Gettit, but you are listing into the shallow end of a marketplace whose deep end is somewhere else. That is fine when it costs you nothing. It is not fine if you expect the conversion rate Depop gives you for the same garment.
The corollary is more useful than the warning. Most people clearing a wardrobe also have a pram in the garage, a travel cot, a bag of Duplo, a drill. Adding Gettit does not merely duplicate your Depop shop — it gives you somewhere to put the half of the clear-out Depop was always the wrong home for.
Who should do this, and who should not bother
Two answers, and one of them is “don’t”.
Do it if your Depop shop is a side-effect of clearing a household. Parents especially. If you started selling because a child outgrew three sizes in a year, your inventory is already broader than Depop — you have been listing the clothing part of it because that is the app you know. Gettit is aimed at the rest, and the rest is where your bigger-ticket items are.
Do it if you have stock that has stalled. An item bumped and relisted on Depop for three months has been shown repeatedly to Depop’s buyers and never to anybody else. A second channel is a cheap way of finding out whether the problem is the item or the audience.
Do not bother if you run a curated Depop brand whose listings depend on styling. If your shop works because of how it looks — consistent flat-lays, a recognisable aesthetic, a following that buys because it is you — then the thing generating your sales is precisely the thing that does not transfer. You would be posting garments into a general marketplace with no seller identity behind them, and your time is better spent where your advantage exists. Come back when Gettit has more fashion buyers, or when you have a pram to sell.
What does not travel: followers, likes and the grid
Everything social about Depop stays on Depop. This is the honest cost of the second channel and it is not denominated in dollars.
A mature Depop shop carries assets that never appear in listing data: followers who see new uploads, likes that act as social proof, a grid whose look tells a buyer what kind of seller you are, and the bump behaviour that keeps items near the top of the feed. Sellers spend months building that. None of it is a field in a listing, so none of it crosses over.
On Gettit you arrive as a new account with a two-sided rating that has nothing in it and a reputation badge that has not been earned yet. Buyers there are looking at ratings and at the item, not at a shop aesthetic. So expect the first few sales to be slower and to be judged more sceptically than the equivalent sale on an established Depop account — that is not the platform failing, it is what a cold start looks like anywhere.
Three things shorten the cold start. Verify early — Gettit needs email and phone verification to list and a one-time identity check before any payout, so doing it in advance means your first sale is not held up by paperwork. Dispatch fast, because the same mechanism that records a missed dispatch also gives you a visibly clean record. And write descriptions that stand alone: on Depop the context lives in your bio and your feed, while on Gettit each listing explains itself.
Photographs: the styled shot and the honest one
Your Depop photography is probably too flattering for Gettit, and that is a compliment to it.
Depop rewards styled images: shot on a model, cropped square, good light, often presented as an outfit rather than an object. That is what performs in a fashion feed.
Gettit’s buyer is doing a different job. They are assessing a used object’s condition against a structured field, and the condition values on Gettit’s live search facets are Brand new (new, unused), Very good, Good and Fair. A buyer choosing between two “Good” listings wants to see what “Good” means on yours: the mark on the hem, the wear on the heel, the missing button.
So do not replace your Depop images — add to them. Keep the styled shot as the lead; it still makes people click. Then add a flat, well-lit photograph of the item laid out plainly, and a close-up of any flaw. Two extra photographs per listing is the whole intervention, and it is the highest-return thing you can do on this route.
One more reason to be careful with condition here: Gettit’s protection covers non-arrival and not-as-described on shipped orders, is capped at the amount paid and is explicitly not insurance. “Not as described” is judged against your listing, so the listing is your defence — and an unphotographed flaw in the last line of the description is not much of one.
How to crosslist from Depop to Gettit
- Connect Depop in FLUF Connect. No browser extension is needed to import or publish Depop listings.
- Import your Depop catalogue. FLUF reads your live Depop listings and builds a master product record for each one: title, description, images, price and category.
- Connect Gettit. Sign in to Gettit with your account credentials. No extension is required.
- Choose what actually goes. This is the step this route deserves and most sellers skip. Do not push the whole shop. Push the items whose buyer might not be a fashion-app buyer, plus anything that has stalled.
- Set the condition value deliberately. Gettit’s four values are not Depop’s wording; map downward when unsure, and add the flat photograph and flaw close-up before publishing rather than after a question about it.
- Pick your satchel size at listing time — Small, Medium or Large, or your own box.
- Publish, and leave sold-out protection on so that a sale on one side pulls the listing on the other.
The fourth step is the one worth dwelling on. Because Gettit costs nothing, the temptation is to push everything. Resist it — every live listing is an obligation to dispatch within three business days, and a shop full of half-forgotten items is how a missed dispatch happens.
What transfers, and what you decide
| Field | On Depop | On Gettit | Transfers? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Title | Effectively the first line of the description | Its own field | Yes — but check it reads as a title |
| Description | Free text, often short and stylistic | Free text, doing all the explaining | Yes, usually worth extending |
| Images | Styled, square, often on a model | Condition evidence | Yes — add a flat shot and a flaw shot |
| Price | Fixed price, in AUD | Fixed price, in AUD | Yes |
| Category | Fashion taxonomy | 164 categories, general household | Mapped, not copied |
| Brand | Structured | Free text within the listing | Carried into the listing text |
| Size | Structured, per garment type | Not a universal structured field | Keep it in the title and description |
| Condition | Depop’s own wording | Brand new / Very good / Good / Fair | Mapped — review each one |
| Postage | Your arrangement | Prepaid Australia Post label, satchel tier chosen at listing | Decided on Gettit |
| Followers, likes, shop look | Substantial | Nothing carries over | No |
Two rows carry the weight. Size is a first-class structured field on a fashion app and is not one on a general marketplace, so a listing that relied on the size selector arrives on Gettit looking vague — put the size in the title. And the last row is the one nobody puts in a comparison table, which is why we have.
Gettit’s mechanics in brief
Gettit is more structured than a classifieds site and the structure is mostly in the seller’s favour. Briefly, because the detail belongs in the Gettit seller guide:
- Postage. Gettit generates a prepaid Australia Post label and the buyer covers the postage, so you are never out of pocket. You choose Small, Medium or Large at listing time, or your own box. It must be a genuine Australia Post satchel — those are not weighed or measured up to 5 kg, and a lookalike mailer is warned to cost around $4 more.
- Getting paid. The buyer pays Gettit, the money is held, you ship, and it releases when the buyer confirms or when the 48-hour window from the delivered scan lapses. Payouts run through Stripe Connect after a one-time identity check.
- Dispatch. You have three business days from payment being authorised. Miss it and the order is cancelled, the buyer refunded and a missed dispatch recorded on your profile.
- Pickup. Secured Pickup holds the money until the buyer gives you a 6-digit code in person. Plain local pickup is free and explicitly at your own risk — it carries no Gettit Protection at all.
That held-payment structure is worth valuing. Buying-and-selling scams on online marketplaces were the most-reported loss-making scam type in Australia in 2025 to date — 9,628 of 19,662 reports and $8.6m lost, up 19% year on year, according to the ABC. A marketplace that holds the buyer’s money and puts a code on a handover is answering a real Australian problem, not an imagined one.
How early Gettit really is
Very early, and you should hear it from us rather than discover it.
Gettit Pty Ltd is an Australian private company, ACN 699 431 886, registered in Brighton, Victoria, GST-registered from 24 June 2026 (Australian Business Register). Its terms of service and fees schedule both take effect 1 August 2026, its first blog post is dated 27 August 2026, and the platform launched in August 2026.
On scale, here is what can be established and no more. Its sitemap contains exactly 1,000 listing URLs, and 1,000 is the generator’s cap — so the defensible statement is at least 1,000 live listings, a floor rather than a count, alongside 164 category pages. No user, seller or sales figure is published anywhere on the site, and there is essentially no third-party coverage: no reviews, no press, no forum threads we could find.
For comparison, Gumtree Australia carries 2.1 out of 5 from 1,856 reviews on ProductReview.com.au; Gettit has no listing there at all. That cuts both ways — nobody has complained about it either — but a platform with no reviews is an unknown, not a clean record.
The reason to be there anyway is the shape of the bet. A second listing on a marketplace with no seller commission has a bounded downside: some minutes of your time, and the discipline of dispatching within three business days if it sells. The upside is a sale from a buyer who does not use Depop. If Gettit stays small you have lost very little, and the item is still live on Depop throughout.
It also arrives in an unusual moment: within months, eBay Australia made selling free below AU$25,000 of annual sales, Vinted launched in Australia with zero seller fees, Depop dropped its Australian seller fees, and Gettit launched buyer-pays-only. The scarce resource is now your attention, not your margin.
What FLUF can and cannot do on each side
| Capability through FLUF Connect | Depop | Gettit |
|---|---|---|
| Connect the account | Yes, no browser extension required | Yes, sign in with your account credentials; no browser extension required |
| Import your existing catalogue | Yes | No — Gettit is a destination only |
| Publish listings from FLUF | Yes | Yes |
| Mark as sold when it sells elsewhere | Yes | Yes |
| Order sync back into FLUF | Yes | No |
| Automated relisting | Yes, from Seller (£29) upwards | No |
| Offer management | Yes, from Seller (£29) upwards | No |
| Messaging, refunds and fulfilment | Yes | No |
| Browser extension required | No | No |
Be clear about the direction, because sellers assume it wrongly. Gettit is a destination only. FLUF publishes to it and can mark an item sold there when it goes elsewhere. FLUF cannot read a Gettit catalogue, cannot import listings you created on Gettit by hand, and offers no Gettit relisting, offer management or order sync. If you have already built a Gettit shop manually, those listings will not appear in FLUF; the route runs one way, from your Depop catalogue outwards.
Depop is the opposite — one of the most complete channels FLUF drives. Reading your catalogue, publishing, relisting, offer management, messaging, order sync, refunds, fulfilment and mark-as-sold are supported without an extension. That asymmetry is what makes the pair work: the rich side is the side that already holds your inventory.
The risk that genuinely needs solving is oversell — one physical garment live in two places, a buyer on each. Sold-out protection is the answer: sell on Depop and FLUF pulls the Gettit listing, and the reverse. It matters more here than on most pairs because Gettit starts its dispatch clock the moment a buyer pays, so a stale listing can put a missed dispatch on the profile you are building. An Australian seller on OzBargain put the underlying problem well: “I put everything I sell on both platforms, and it seems inconsistent as to where I end up getting the sale from” (Doy, 11 July 2023, OzBargain). You cannot predict which channel sells the item, which is the argument for being on both — and the reason the delisting has to be automatic.
On plans: crosslisting, inventory sync and order sync are on every paid FLUF plan, entry tier Starter at £9 a month with unlimited crosslisting. Relisting, offer management and smart pricing begin at Seller, £29 — relevant on the Depop side of this pair, not the Gettit side. See the plans — 7 days for £1, then from £9/month.

What we could not verify, and therefore left out. Gettit’s user, seller and sales numbers, which it does not publish and no third party reports — we give a floor of 1,000 listings from the sitemap and nothing more. Its exact launch date beyond August 2026. Its satchel prices, which are not published as a table, and the price of its optional seller-side listing-visibility upsells, which it says are set at the point of purchase. Depop’s current fee schedule outside Australia, since its fees page would not serve us a response, and its Australian buyer numbers and category mix, which are not published. And any measured comparison of sell-through between the two platforms: the case here is an argument from audience composition, not a measured finding, and anyone offering a conversion-rate comparison between an established fashion app and a marketplace launched in August 2026 is guessing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Gettit's published fees schedule contains no seller commission of any kind. Its fees are buyer-side: a buyer protection fee on shipped orders and on Secured Pickup, and a local handover it describes as having “no fee of any kind, and no commission”. Postage on a shipped order is covered by the buyer through a prepaid Australia Post label. A Gettit seller currently pays nothing.
Yes. From 22 July 2026 Depop charges zero selling fees to Australia-based sellers on AUD sales, replacing its previous 10% seller fee. The cost moved to the buyer as a Marketplace fee of up to 5% plus up to A$1. This page therefore is not an argument about fees — both channels are free to sell on, and the reason to add Gettit is a second audience, not a cheaper one.
No. Gettit is a destination only. FLUF publishes listings to Gettit and can mark an item sold there when it sells on another channel, but it cannot read or import a Gettit catalogue, and there is no Gettit relisting, offer management or order sync. The route runs from your Depop catalogue outwards, not the other way.
No. Neither Depop nor Gettit requires a browser extension for FLUF Connect. Connect Depop in FLUF and sign in to Gettit with your account credentials. Depop supports relisting, offer management, messaging, order sync, refunds, fulfilment and mark-as-sold.
No, and this is the real cost of the second channel. Followers, likes, your shop's visual grid and Depop's bump behaviour are all account-level things rather than listing data, so none of them transfer. On Gettit you start with an empty two-sided rating. Complete identity verification early and dispatch quickly — a clean dispatch record is the reputation you can build fastest.
No. If your Depop shop is a curated fashion brand whose sales depend on styling and a following, the thing that sells your stock is exactly the thing that does not transfer, and your time is better spent on Depop. The seller who gains most is the one whose Depop shop is a by-product of clearing a household — parents especially — because Gettit's deepest categories are baby and kids, prams and car seats, nursery furniture and the rest of the house.
That is the oversell risk, and it is why sold-out protection matters here. When the item sells on one channel, FLUF pulls the listing on the other. It matters more than usual on this pair because a Gettit order starts a three-business-day dispatch clock the moment the buyer pays, and missing it cancels the order, refunds the buyer and records a missed dispatch on your profile.
The buyer pays Gettit and the money is held. You dispatch with the prepaid Australia Post label, and the funds release when the buyer confirms receipt or when the 48-hour window from the Australia Post delivered scan lapses. Payouts run through Stripe Connect, and a one-time Stripe identity check is required before the first payout. Card and bank details are held by Stripe rather than by Gettit.
Partly. A styled, model-shot, square-cropped Depop image still makes people click, so keep it as the lead. But Gettit buyers judge a used object against structured condition values — Brand new, Very good, Good and Fair — so add a flat, well-lit photograph of the item laid out plainly plus a close-up of any damage. Two extra images per listing is the highest-return work on this route.
It launched in August 2026 and it is early. Its terms and fees schedule take effect 1 August 2026, its sitemap contains 1,000 listing URLs — a generator cap, so treat it as a floor rather than a count — across 164 categories, and it publishes no user, seller or sales figures. There is essentially no third-party coverage of it. We think it is worth listing on anyway because the downside is bounded: it costs a seller nothing.
